HAIRINESS


Protrusion of fibre ends from the main yarn structure


EFFECT
  • More end breaks in winding
  • Uneven fabric surface
  • Beads formation in the fabric in the case of polyester/cotton blends

CAUSES
  • Use of cottons differing widely in the properties in the same mixing
  • Use of worn rings and lighter travellars
  • Maintaining low relative humidity, closer roller settings and very high spindle speeds

RECTIFICATION
  • Use of travellars of correct size and shape and rings in good condition to be ensured
  • Periodic replacement of travellars and suitable
  • Roller settings to be maintained
  • Optimum relative humidity to be maintained in the spinning room
  • Wide variation in the properties of cottons used in the mixing to be avoided
